In this fallen world . . .
there’ll be troubles abounding
worries and cares
conceptually confounding.
But, Jesus said we’re not,
to fret or to despair
but to hand over to Him
our every single care.
Each day there’s enough,
troubles of its own
packed full of anxiety
from the things unknown.
But, Jesus insisted,
we are not to dread
nor are we to panic
but to trust Him instead.
In this fallen world,
we’ll have plenty of distress
but, Jesus makes it clear
over them we needn’t obsess!
~~~~~~~
“These things I have spoken unto you,
that in me ye might have peace.
In the world ye shall have tribulation:
but be of good cheer;
I have overcome the world.”
